It matches the OEM voltage rail and connector configuration for the Sovereign XS platform. Capacity figures are taken directly from the product specification, not estimated from third-party sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSovereign XS platform fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    The Sovereign XS runs a dedicated 11.1V three-cell Li-ion architecture. This replacement uses the same cell configuration and connector pinout, so the detector's internal charge management circuit communicates with the pack correctly without triggering a pack-rejection fault.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this pack through the Sovereign XS power-on sequence and confirmed the BMS held voltage within the detector's operating window across full draw conditions. No cutoff events occurred during standard coil-active operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-use initialisation on the Sovereign XS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    After fitting this pack, run the detector through a full power-on and ground balance cycle before heading into the field. The Sovereign XS maps battery state during that initialisation sequence — skipping it causes the low-battery indicator to trigger early on the first outing, even with a fully charged pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the Sovereign XS throws a low-battery warning immediately after fitting a new pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Sovereign XS monitors battery state against a stored voltage threshold from the previous pack. When you fit a new cell with a different resting voltage curve, the detector compares the new pack's open-circuit voltage against that old reference and flags it as low. This is not a fault with the replacement battery — it is a calibration gap. Running a full ground balance cycle resets the reference and clears the warning. After one complete field session, the indicator tracks accurately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eSovereign XS powers on but shuts off when the coil begins active sweep\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Sovereign XS coil draws a short current spike the moment it starts actively transmitting. If the battery pack has been in storage and the BMS has entered a low-voltage protection state, that initialisation spike trips the BMS cutoff before the detector reaches stable operation. Measure the pack's resting voltage — if it reads below 9.0V, the BMS needs a recovery charge before normal use. Connect to a compatible Li-ion charger and allow a trickle pre-charge cycle to bring the pack above the 9.0V recovery threshold before attempting to power the detector again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43360681132122,"sku":"BWCS-MLX100SL-1","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43360681164890,"sku":"BWCS-MLX100SL-2","price":40.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43360681197658,"sku":"BWCS-MLX100SL-3","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-MLX100SL-1.webp?v=1778616161","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/minelab-sovereign-xs-replacement-battery-111v-2600mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
